Hassan Pedro made in China might not be bad

There are plenty of companies that can wave-solder boards here in the US. There are plenty of jobs that can be created here soldering on a last component, testing them and putting your Malduinos into a plastic shell. Perhaps you can support the US or a country that's more aligned with the western world.

PCBWay makes the boards and ship them really cheap. I do not remember the price, but it is quite cheap for few bucks only (I guess there is some dimensions limit to that price, too, would actually need to check), so if you actually have a small board, having it panelized is really a good idea. If you want to keep track of every sold piece, you could also use a tracking number on the PCB using silk screen and keep a list of sold pieces. PCBWay will also solder the components for you, and you can then have your product ready from China. JBC is also provides its services for board manufacturing, only $2 per board (also limited by dimensions, would need to check), so panelizing is also good idea here. JBC actually uses their own tracking number on your order and they put it on the board itself, so if you want to keep your boards off that tracking number, it would be wise to place a tracking number placeholder somewhere on a throwaway part of the panel, just to keep the number off the board itself - their placeholder is JBC repeated like 4 times, they replace it with the tracking number later. If you want to use their tracking number on individual pieces, think twice, because they'll assign the tracking number to the single board, and you may end up with bunch of boards with the same tracking number (which I guess you don't want). Keeping tracking numbers is quite pain in the ass for an individual, so I will save myself off the hassle actually.

I feel an urge to DIY this

@NH3 yea me too

You can just buy digispark for around 1.5$ delivered

Josef Kuchař i know but there is no sd card nor a dip switch

@@nielsjonkman7196 1) You don't need sd card, you can flash the sketch directly 2) You can solder a dip switch easily

Thanks a bunch! I plan on outsourcing manufacturing sometime soon, so cleaning pcbs with a toothbrush will become a thing of the past.

Hy i got one as well but I don’t know how to use mine please can you walk me through it. Thanks 🙏🏾

thats why he uses solder paste

I use a microscope. It works well up to a point.

Try 0201Then collapsed

Linus will do it but he'll probably ask for 5 grand

@@RespawnRestricted and drop 10 of them

@User No. He overreacts too much. Anything remotely interesting, impresses him. He's the Jimmy Fallon of unboxing videos.

He posted 7 months ago that he's planning to source them out so I guess not

Did it come with a micro SD card?

@@kv-2commander146 I got the lite version but I'd assume the pro version doesnt come with it

@@kv-2commander146 elite doesn't come with sd card

@@kv-2commander146 No.

We’re working with a bit of a backlog, through if your order hasn’t already shipped it will do within a couple days!

It was at thus point that I took a long look at Seytonic, and only then did I notice he was really a giant crustacean from the paleolithic era.

I read this as Peter Griffin's voice. @@NeonSJuggalo

@@tommojphillips why Peter Griffin's voice? Peter is on 'Family Guy'. It was Chef's parents (mostly dad) from 'South Park' that says this quote. So I hate to tell you (lies I love it, LOVE IT) that you are wrong. So very wrong.

sad, unless he covers his mouth gg

solder paste is sticky. you gotta be careful with touching them ;]

Turn your head and sneeze on someone.

Proper msd handling as well.

It's best to do pre-production final prototype by hand if you are a low-capital start-up. Less investment needed to start getting something saleable. And you know the product more intimately so if there are issues with the chosen layout you can more quickly adapt. Then first series of sales can also be done that way: basically investing your own work time instead of risking ordering a zillion from China and finding the market is smaller than you hoped. There will be a minimum order size before ordering from abroad becomes cost effective. And you have to front the cost of the whole order before you get them back to sell (This investment tied up in ordering stuff is sometimes called "working capital") Then as the business grows you trade off the extra capital outlay of putting in an order against your saving labour time.

Hate your second name, keep it up

@@3rdvoidmen594 but its gandhi

@@mylo5641 Exactly the reason why you just asked me the question..After all it's just a name. I didn't say I hate the Mahtma Gandhi. Just all these people using it as their suffix. You know the family right..haha

P.S I also feel a modified version could be used with the malduino elite to execute another script without unplugging

Worth a try, I was thinking that it might be thin enough? But with a Resin Printer.. maybe? why not give it a go ? only a few cents worth of waste if it doesn't end up working, right?

Flux is a good thing while soldering but a bad thing when it outstays its welcome Think of it like washing up liquid (dish soap). It's great for cleaning out a cup, but not so great if some stays around to join your next coffee...
